Please contact us via: orders@thebudgiesmuggler.com with photos of the damage, we will investigate the issue and amend where possible.

As the cocktails are a consumable products, they can only be returned if broken or incorrect. Please contact us at: orders@thebudgiesmuggler.com to discuss details regarding returns.

If your order is already on its way and has left our warehouse, there isn't much more we can do. We recommend contacting the courier service customer service line directly with the tracking number you would have been provided. Unfortunately, due to the cocktails being a consumable product, we can't offer refunds on late orders.

Our cocktails have varying shelf-lifes, generally from 1 to 3 months. The ones you receive will have a 'Best Before' guide on the rear label. We always recommend you consume your drinks within a week of you receiving your order to ensure the best possible taste. The Budgie Smuggler prides themselves on quality cocktails, drinks and products and hence recommend consuming products as soon as possible to fully experience the deliciousness The Budgie Smuggler offers.

We highly recommend refrigeration of cocktails. Quality and longevity of cocktails improve greatly with refrigeration. We recommend when consuming to have the cocktails as cold as possible.

We recommend consumption immediately after opening the product – or, we suggest enjoying it within a day or 2 at the latest.

All our cocktails have recommended glassware pairings on the back and we've added some serving suggestions on our site. Many of our cocktails are designed to be shaken with ice however we understand not everyone has access to a cocktails shaker. Feel free to explore options with shaking the cocktail (protein shakers work great) otherwise we recommend serving as cold as possible and serving over ice.
